The story behind the image
We had arrived on a Saturday in Las Vegas. In the late afternoon we started to explore the famous Las Vegas Strip with its countless hotels, casinos and restaurants. We slowly made our way to the Mandalay Bay Hotel, and at sunset, zillions of tiny lights began to glow.
On our way back, the night completely took over, and I captured the busy crossing of the Flamingo Road/Las Vegas Boulevard South. The Flamingo Hotel still exists today. The Barbary Coast Hotel and Casino, however, was sold in 2004 and reopened as Bill’s Gambling Hall and Saloon which still operates today..
